A significant traffic incident occurred today at the intersection of Vega Road and Lewis Road in Watsonville, CA, involving two vehicles, including a white Ford F150. The collision resulted in complete road closures on both sides of Vega Road and along connecting routes, leading to substantial traffic delays and congestion in the area.

The incident was reported around 10:11 PM when the Ford F150 collided with a utility pole, causing downed power lines and prompting a fire response. Emergency services, including multiple units from the California Highway Patrol, were dispatched to manage traffic flow and secure the scene.

Due to the severity of the situation, a hard closure was implemented to ensure public safety while repairs were conducted. Power company personnel were notified and are expected to work through the night to replace the damaged pole, which will keep the road closed until tomorrow morning.

A tow truck has been called to remove the Ford F150 once conditions permit. Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid significant backups and delays in the area. As emergency crews continue to work on-site, drivers should remain cautious and alert.
